Claymore is a figure I have wanted to do a custom of but couldn't figure out how to fit him into my world. And the mish mash look of his uniform plus the giraffe camo didn't set well with me. Until I figured out that he would be GI Joe's agent assigned in South America. As such his uniform is basically whatever he could get from surplus suppliers and from the black market in SA. So he wears out of date DBDUs (chocolate chip camo, a first attempt for me) pants and an OD flak vest and helmet. It actually reminds me of watching the soldiers in Iraq on the news in their desert uniforms with green vests.

And here is Neurotoxin, the newest member of The Immortals. He is protected against the environment because he is a victim of the Fear Agent toxin that he invented himself that goes into the brain and provokes an unknown amount of phobias. Now that he has accidentally been injected he is the only one that will handle the stuff since it can do him no more harm.

Claymore looks good. The camo came out great. I don't know if I would have used it for a South American soldier where it is mostly tropical jungles but it works within the backstory you created for him.

I like the look of Neurotoxin a lot. Very creepy and German stormtrooper looking. The coat is from 21st Century figures at Wal-Mart right? That would explain the vibe I'm getting from him.

Thanks for the comments.


The coat is from The Golden Compass line. Its on the Sam Elliott figure. I hope TRU clearances these things big cause I got a lot of uses for the coat myself.

Claymore looks solid.

Neurotoxin is very sleek. Painting the helmet black really creates a sinister look. Awesome concept, too.
